  1. torture is all well and good – but I think we may be under utilizing the nagging option. Nobody can really stand firm under constant nagging for any length of time. I personally know 2 women who could get any info terrorist guys may have… in a very short period of time. – no water needed.

  2. I agree that we should not subject murderous terrorists to having their heads put briefly under water. We should simply threaten to suck their brain out the back of their neck with a vacuum or dismember them one limb at a time, and if they don’t give us the information we require, simply follow through on our threat. As we all know, those techniques are clearly not torture, those are simply abortions…it doesn’t hurt, and it’s completely humane.

  3. When I was learning to water ski I waterboarded myself repeatedly. Torture? not…

    “[T]ry that on a cat and see if it acts like that isn’t torture” — satirical genius. Yep, that’s Frank, all over.

    …and has tortured monkeys in a lab setting

    But just the other day in your tweets you said you had tortured monkeys, but NOT in a lab setting. Then today we learn that you have indeed tortured monkeys IN A LAB SETTING. Ergo, you have spent the last few days in a white lab smock torturing your heart out, while nearby test tubes rattle at the sound of monkey shrieks.

    This explains the dearth of posts some days this week. I feel better now. I thought IMAO was getting the short-shrift because you didn’t like us or something, but it is actually due to your commitment to national security and monkey bashing. You deserve some 190-pixel wide awards in recognition of your importance to America.
